This is Your Brain on Music, Daniel Levitin, 314p, 2006, audio

5/10

Some parts were interesting, but I didn't really nice with the main concept of understanding music through neuroscience. It seemed like too much analyzing something that must be felt to be understood

Another proof that the current US elites are, in their majority, worthless. Toothless, cowardly and sycophantic rich people who just want to wallow in their fortunes in peace and will do anything to please those in power.

The Teller of Small Fortunes by @julieleong.bsky.social 2024, 324p, fantasy

7.5/10

I can't really say why, but I enjoyed this one quite a bit. It doesn't move that fast which is usually a no go for me and fiction, but I really liked the meandering pace of this one.

The Deep by Rivers Solomon, 2019, 166p, fiction, audio

5/10

This was kind of interesting. I listened to it which is a bit tough for me and fiction.

Life After Cars, by @sgoodyear.bsky.social and @brooklynspoke.bsky.social , 2025, non fiction, 304p, audio

8/10

Years ago I started listening to this podcast. I was extremely skeptical, but after a few episodes they won me over.

@shannonhale.bsky.social we're having a great time reading the Princess in Black with our little one, just like we did with our others!

This is my third time listening to this one and it's my absolute favorite parenting book, one of my all time favorite books!

Raising Good Humans by Hunter Clark-Fields, 2019, 169p, non fiction, audio

7/10

Like all parenting books, there is a ton in here, so you have to just take what works for you and toss the rest.

Well, the game sucked, but I love having @robertgriffiniii.bsky.social do the color for Utah games!

The tapper twins run for President and The Tapper Twins my Geoff Radkey, 2010s, juvenile fiction

I'm doing both books at once here because they're pretty quick reads and I read them in consecutive days

@camkendell.bsky.social once again I'm re reading the Fart Quests. We're in the middle of book 2 and this illustration got us rolling laughing. I'm curious, how much of the dialog in the illustrations do you do?

This book also reminds me that Moxie is the best!

I loved RG3 as a commentator. I hope he does more Utah games in the future

The Tapper Twins Tear Up New York, Geoff Rodkey, juvenile fiction, 2015, 261p

8/10

I read this series while working graveyard shifts. They are perfect for that. They don't take a lot of head power and they're funny and entertaining.

Fallout, Peter Watson, 2018, 448p, non fiction, audio

I didn't finish this one. It was way too long and detailed. I'd like to believe the premise (USA knew there was no threat of a nuclear bomb), but I haven't heard it anywhere else, so I need verification.

Everything is tuberculosis by John Green, 198 pages, 2025, non fiction, audio

I didn't finish this one. My loan ended before I could finish. I would say it was mildly good, but I'm not planning on going back and finishing

Years ago in 2013 or 2014, someone in utefans.net posted a link to Livin' It by Stick Figure. I've loved their music ever since I discovered it that day. Thank you!

#bookreviw #booksky 💙📚 The Tapper Twins Go To War, Geoff Rodkey, juvenile fiction, 219p

7.5/10

I thought this was a pretty fun book.

There aren't really any life lessons or anything deeper than just being entertained, but it was entertaining. If I was a 6th grader I would probably give it 10/10

Riverman: An American Odyssey by Ben McGrath, 2022, 264p audio

4/10

I thought this one started pretty good, but after the first 60 pages or so it got to be quite a slog.

Abundance by @dkthomp.bsky.social and @ezraklein.bsky.social 2025, 288p audio

8/10

This is not a book that made me happier. I took it as a very depressing view of where we are, where we could be, and some of the hurdles that we face to get where we want to go.

@benwinslow.bsky.social I just replied to your post about the Menzies execution being delayed with my opinion. Another person responded with a rebuttal to my opinion. We didn't get in a flame war, but I'm curious about how you feel about people replying to your posts. I'll stop if... /1
